What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role focused on Linux system and web infrastructure, security-first operations, automation, and monitoring within a collaborative, growth-oriented team.

I am a system and web administrator with extensive hands-on experience managing and securing Linux-based infrastructures for production websites and services. I have maintained over 40 Linux servers, managed LAMP/LNMP stacks, and handled migrations and upgrades for Drupal and WordPress instances.

My work emphasizes security, backups, monitoring and automation: I set up Postfix mail servers, configured OpenVPN and WireGuard, implemented monitoring with Nagios/Zabbix and participated in projects using Ansible, Grafana, Prometheus and Borg. I routinely deploy and manage code via Git/Bitbucket and work with puppet-managed systems such as Aegir.

I bring practical troubleshooting skills, Office365 and Azure administration at the company level, and experience supporting colleagues and clients. I seek roles where I can apply strong system administration, automation and security practices to maintain reliable production environments.
